Strategically Say No

In this episode, we cover the spectrum of saying no... in a strategic way. The internet is full of quotes stating, "Just say no" ...

...but unless you want a short-term win, you'll need to find other ways, set healthy boundaries and maintain rapport and trust.

In this episode, you'll hear about:

  • Understand where you stand when saying "no" based on your leadership style
  • Be aware of your emotions and how they may impact your ability to have productive discussions.
  • Listen to someone, even if you don't agree with them.
  • Find ways to maintain rapport and trust.

Happy listening!

  • Do you have any questions or comments?
